Elderly Concord Woman Struck By Car On North Main Street
CONCORD, NH — North Main and Franklin streets were closed for more than seven hours on Saturday after a crash between a car and a motorized wheelchair.
Just past 10:30 a.m., fire and rescue teams were sent to the intersection of Franklin and North Main streets. Callers reported to both police and fire dispatchers a car collided with a motor scooter wheelchair and a person was down in the street.
The first officer who arrived closed the street while other officers arrived. North Main’s intersection with Interstate 393 and Bouton Street and the roundabout on Franklin and North State streets were all immediately closed to traffic.
According to scanner chatter, the car involved was a Toyota Corolla with New York plates driven by a teenager.
A trauma alert was activated at Concord Hospital for the victim, an elderly woman with serious bodily injuries. An officer followed the EMTs to the hospital, with one officer saying the victim had not yet been identified.
Several witnesses spoke to police at the scene while officers put up crime scene tape. Evidence technicians were requested later. Concord General Services was also asked to bring direction signs to the crash scene.
The driver’s parents came to the crash scene and one officer requested another to bring a voluntary blood sample form to the scene.
The victim was taken into surgery with a significant leg wound, one officer said.
The closed street was reopened just before 6 p.m.

A New Hampshire man has been found guilty of murdering his wife, who was killed while they were on vacation.
Joseph Ferlazzo fatally shot 22-year-old Emily Ferlazzo in Oct. 2021 while they were visiting Vermont for their one-year wedding anniversary.
Emily’s family reported that she was missing when he returned from their trip alone, claiming that Emily had left after they had an argument.

Joseph ultimately confessed to shooting Emily twice after an argument and dismembering her body. Emily’s remains were found in the bathroom of the couple’s camper van. He testified at trial and claimed self-defense.
According to an affidavit obtained by NBC Boston, Emily’s mother told investigators there was a history of domestic violence in their marriage.
In 2023, Joseph was reportedly ordered to pay Emily’s family $1.5 million in a wrongful death lawsuit.

Authorities in New England say they are aware of sightings of drones bring reported from Cape Cod to the Granite State.
State authorities say they are aware and monitoring the situation, but that is not exactly comforting to people who have seen these drones hovering over their homes.
“It’s very concerning and unnerving and unsettling.” said Harwich resident Lindsay Muto.
Muto says she saw a dozen drones the size of an SUV hovering around her house.
Lawmakers are questioning the FBI over weeks of New Jersey drone sightings.
She is one of many people across Massachusetts and New Hampshire who caught the unconfirmed sighting on video, similar to the drones we have seen flying around New Jersey in recent weeks.
“To my knowledge I think we were one of the first departments to bring it to anybody’s attention.” said Harwich Police Chief Kevin Considine.
Considine sent out a release to let people know they are aware of the situation and an off-duty officer saw two similar drones near the station the same night.
“We don’t know what these are, we don’t know if they’re associated we just know they’re similar to reports in other parts of the country.” the chief added.
Meanwhile, more than 150 miles away in Barrington, New Hampshire, another family caught a similar sight on camera.
“We never thought we would see it on our backyard” said Norma Boyd of Barrington.
Now everyone is asking for answers.
“I think we def need some answers, we have kids at home these things are flying over our house.” said Muto.
Massachusetts and New Hampshire State Police say they are aware of these reports and the FAA is monitoring the situation, while the FBI declined to comment.
Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey also said Saturday that she is monitoring the situation closely.
A position of need has been filled through the transfer portal for Nebraska football.
New Hampshire long snapper Kevin Gallic has committed the the Huskers. Gallic has one season of eligibility remaining.

Nebraska needed to shore up the long snapper position this offseason. Early this fall, the Huskers had issues with the kicking game, though the blame initially went to freshman John Hohl. However, the coaches said “the whole operation” was the problem, as it was clear to see the snaps were often missing the mark.
